That was before you included the part where he said “don't waste your vacation time”. Typically when someone says that, it translates to “go see other people, I don't have much for you”. Try not getting caught up in the word salad, look at the bigger picture. You are on vacation, you've got a guy who's telling you to go have fun because he doesn't know what he wants right now. You're adult enough to just leave him to stew and focus on you.
Thank you for advice and comment! I really appreciated your perspective in this. I'm really sorry to hear that you have been put in that situation twice, and that is really not fair for you. This is probably the main reason why I want to make sure that I'm not making the same mistake. I have been that rebound guy as well, and I really hated that. I was an emotional wreck during the first week of the breakup, but I did came to accept the fact that the breakup is something that needed to be done sooner or later and there is nothing I can do.
Anyway, I just want to make sure that I actually have gone through and processed things in a healthy way. I apologize if I sound really dumb here, but is there a checklist that I can refer to regarding that?
How sad
